corkscrew around the had land but ties

The wonderful crops raised in the
Gallatin valley this year should put
our ranchmen to thinking. The large
Weld to the Gallatin farmers must be
attributed, in great measure, to their
facilities for irrigation. Of course, this
valley has been settled for great
many years and they have learned by
experience to take advantage Of every
means that will promote their welfare.
A good cash market has also stimu-
lated them to greaterensleavor. Here
we have larger area of agricultural
land with probably a soil Just as rich
but our crops this year will not COM
pare favorably with those OF Gallatin
county. We have not rs much land
under cultivation, nor will there he
until a railroad passes through this
section and affords means OF cheap
transportation to outside markets.
IL seems like q waste OF time and
labor, no doubt, to raise crops for
which there is no market, yet every
farmer likes to see good results from
his labor. II costs no more to harvest
a good crop than it does a poor one
The conditions of weather in the
Judith and Gallatin are not dissimi'
lar. The natural moisture is about
the same. The fact is, nearly every
ranchman in the Gallatin is prepared
to i..rigate just at the proper time
and when the clouds fail to do Their
duty the ditch is opened to revive
the suffering grain.
There were about two weeks in July
when the crops in this section suffered
severely for water, and it was at
critical time in the growth OF grain, a'
the kernel received q blight from whicl
it never recovered although the stall
was of heavy growth. Here the irri
eating ditch would hase been of grea
value as subsidiary measure OF pro
lection to the ripening crops.
There will not always be a poo
market for our crops, and until relic
does come, it will be no loss to fee
the surplus to stock, building up on
branch of husbandry until time, ne'
avenues of relief and the advance @
civilization evens things up.

The controversy between Secretary
Lamar and Commissioner Sparks,
which grew out OF the former $ decision
over-ruling Sparks in the Chicago, st.
Paul, Minneapolis 4 Omaha land
grant case, has eliminated in the res
isnation of the Commissioners. and its
acceptance by the President. The Sea-
rotary held in the Omaha cases that
the company was entitled to indem-
nifty for such lands, which was con-
trary to the opinion of the Commits
sioner. As Mr.. Sparks says the issue
raised by him was clearly one Of law,
it is safe to presume the opinion Of
the Secretary, who is spoken of in con-
nection with the supreme bench, will
have the most weight with thinking
people, although they may give the
Commissioner credit for his sincerity
and honesty in fighting corporations
and land niOnopolies. The great fault
of Mr.. Sparks has been his bad judg-
ment and insufficient knowledge OF
many of the cases in which he has
made rulings. No one can doubt the
high character and legal ability OF
Secretary Lamar. Being the highest
authority in the Interior department
mis- decisions must he based on law
and facts unmixed with fear, profit
or favoritism, as such cases would be
carried up to the supreme court for
final action, and this body takes
nothing but matters of equity into
consideration. Following il the Pres
